RIYADH: Lucid has unveiled its one-of-a-kind lavender Lucid Air Sapphire, exclusively designed and built for the winner of the world’s richest race, the Saudi Cup 2025.

Faisal Sultan, vice president of Lucid Middle East, said: “Presented as a special award to the Saudi Cup winner, this exclusive vehicle is more than just a symbol of triumph; it represents a celebration of the Kingdom’s leadership in sustainability, innovation, and global excellence.”

During his speech, which took place on day one of the Saudi Cup meeting at King Abdulaziz Racecourse in Riyadh, Sultan added: “I am also privileged to introduce a creation that exemplifies the pinnacle of what Lucid can achieve: The world’s first one-of-a-kind Lucid Air Sapphire.”

The vehicle features a lavender finish and boasts a triple-motor system and driving dynamics with 1,234 horsepower and carbon-ceramic brakes.

Sultan said that the unveiling of the vehicle was the result of Lucid’s partnership with the Saudi Cup.

The winner of the Saudi Cup race, which takes place on Feb. 22, receives $20 million, along with the car.

Sultan also unveiled Lucid’s newest vehicle, the Lucid Gravity SUV, and added: “Its (the Lucid Gravity SUV) debut at the Saudi Cup reflects Lucid’s shared vision and support of the Kingdom’s bold vision for the future.

“It is particularly fitting that this groundbreaking vehicle is now available in the Kingdom — a nation that stands at the forefront of innovation and sustainability through Vision 2030.”

The two-day Saudi Cup is an equestrian event that brings together some of the world’s top jockeys at the King Abdulaziz Racecourse and boasts a prize pool of over $38 million.
